[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.12 089/116] mac80211: properly drop the connection in case of invalid CSA IE

From: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>
Date: 2021-05-05 16:39:13

Subsystem: mac80211, the rest · Maintainers: Johannes Berg, Linus Torvalds

From: Emmanuel Grumbach <redacted>

[ Upstream commit 253907ab8bc0818639af382f6398810fa1f022b3 ]

In case the frequency is invalid, ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie
will fail and we may not even reach the check in
ieee80211_sta_process_chanswitch. Drop the connection
in case ieee80211_parse_ch_switch_ie failed, but still
take into account the CSA mode to remember not to send
a deauth frame in case if it is forbidden to.
